Gettysburg Speech.
Lincoln p.443:
Four score and 7 years ago our forefather brought forth on this continent a new nation,conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a civil war,testing whether that nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure..
It is rather for us to be dedicated to the great task remaining before us;that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of de-votion;that we resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain,that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom,and that government of the people,by the people,for the people shall not perish from the earth.
葛底斯堡演讲
林肯第443页:
四十七年前,我们的祖先在这片大陆上建立了一个新的国家,这个国家以自由为理念,致力于人人生而平等的主张。
现在我们卷入了一场内战,考验着这个如此构想、如此奉献的国家能否长久存在。
我们更应该致力于完成我们面前的伟大任务;从这些光荣的逝者身上,我们要更加努力地投身于他们为之奉献了最后全部心血的事业;我们要下定决心,不让这些逝者白白牺牲,让这个在上帝庇佑下的国家获得自由的新生,让民有、民治、民享的政府不会从地球上消失。
